Download the alsa-drivers-1.15.rcx drivers. Untar them. Install the kernel source for the kernel you are running. Type config Type make Unload all of your snd modules. (use rmmod or modprobe -r) type make install depmod -a use modprobe to reinstall your driver. Test. Now, if you only want to change one specific driver you can during configure tell it to just compile that driver. It may also be useful to recompile the new alsa-libs and other alsa packages to make sure everything is compatible. > > Could someone, Bill perhaps, give me some guidance on what I need to do to > update the alsa driver for a specific kernel that's installed? > > I have a bunch of kernels installed on Fedora 7, so could practice on that. > the latest alsa driver on these is 1.0.14. > > Any help/suggestions very much appreciated. > > Nigel. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.
